In 1994 Paiste created the world's largest cymbals to celebrate the grand opening ceremony of the Channel Tunnel, a 50.5km long undersea rail tunnel linking France and the United Kingdom. Now, eighteen years later Paiste's Guiness world record holding cymbals reappear in Liverpool.
The cymbals, measuring 2.20m (86.6 inches) diameter with a weight of 115kg, were made in more than 1,200 working-hours of the same alloy as Paiste Gongs (Nickel Sivler NS12) and were finally attached to telephone poles at 6m height.
It earned Paiste a place in the Guinness book of World Records.
Here's the story of the record-breaking cymbals reappearance...
To celebrate Liverpool's historic connection with the Titanic, the streets were closed as a Giant Diver roamed the streets looking for his young niece.
The story was based on a giant who perished on the Titanic. He wrote a letter to his now orphaned little girl but the letter went down with the Titanic.
The Giant's brother spent 100 years looking for the Titanic and found not only the Titanic but also his brother's letter. He returned to Liverpool with the letter and searched for the little girl.
The giant used the Paiste cymbals to announce his arrival a century after the Titanic sunk.
